Abstract

A molding management system includes: a first acquisition unit configured to acquire first abnormality information, second abnormality information, and third abnormality information; and a first output unit configured to output first warning information. The second abnormality information and the third abnormality information include information on an injection molding machine in the first abnormality information and information on a type of an abnormality in the injection molding machine in the first abnormality information. The first acquisition unit acquires the second abnormality information after acquiring the first abnormality information and before a first period elapses therefrom, and acquires the third abnormality information after acquiring the first abnormality information and after the first period elapses therefrom. The first output unit outputs the first warning information when the first abnormality information is acquired, does not output the first warning information when the second abnormality information is acquired, and outputs the first warning information when the third abnormality information is acquired.
